How do you spell what in French?

"What" in French can be translated in several ways, depending on the context:

* "What" as an interrogative pronoun (asking about something) is "quoi"**.

* Example: "What is your name?" -> "Quoi est votre nom ?"

* "What" as an interrogative adjective (asking about a specific thing) is "quel" (masculine) or "quelle" (feminine).

* Example: "What book are you reading?" -> "Quel livre lisez-vous ?"

* "What" as a conjunction (introducing a clause) is "ce que".

* Example: "I don't know what to do." -> "Je ne sais pas ce que faire."

It's important to choose the right translation based on the specific context of your sentence.
